Glory

Well I may dip out on grants, awards and residencies of literary note, but the Glory is mine this week. Or should I say its Penny's, my lovely editor at Scholastic- it's in her inbox as I write. All 39,617 words of it. We have just finished the final edits for this, my third junior fiction novel and now all that remains is the mark up, typesetting, proofs, printing, distribution, launch, marketing, launch and selling of lots of copies...

Thankyou all! Without my support crew nothing would be possible! The colour of the cover came out very hot pink on my blog but is in fact purple. With overglossed stars.Still very girly which i hope won't put the boys off because I think they'd enjoy it too. But maybe if their sisters leave it lying around...
